SAU vs TN Dream11 Prediction : Saurashtra Vs Tamil Nadu Best Dream 11 Team for Grand League

SAU Vs TN Dream11 Team Probable Playing 11, Toss, Pitch And Match Report: Last chance for Tamil Nadu to make it into the ensuing stage.

As the league stage encounters draw to a close in Rani Trophy 2019-20, the clamour for a spot in the top 5 of Elite Group A and B has reached a boil. With the top 5 teams from the 9 partaking in the group moving into the ensuing stage of the tournamnet, each side in contention for a berth in the revered quarter-finals will be looking to come hot out of the blocks today.

And with Tamil Nadu vying for one of the remaining two spots in the group, today’s encounter promises to be an edge of the seat thriller. The side don’t only need to win today but pull off a stupendous win, one which should see them amass a bonus point to take them to 26 points in the group.

And while things won’t be easy infront of Saurashtra which has already sealed its spot in the next round, Tamil Nadu will be buoyed by their previous win. They hammered Baroda by an innings and 57 runs to keep their chances of progressing from the group alive, a win which instilled immense momentum in their ranks at the ideal time.

Probable Winner

Although Tamil Nadu will leave no stone unturned and punch above their weight in this one, we don’t envision them having enough to defeat Saurashtra. They are up against a side which sits in second spot with the three wins from 7 ties, with this encounter looking set to end in a draw on a batting conducive pitch.

Pitch Conditions And Toss

A pinch perfect wicket for the batters, piling the runs on over here is going to be an extremely easy task. The team winning the toss will be looking to step out and bat firs and put on anything above 500 before trying to make the most of the spin conducive conditions on day 4.

SAU Vs TN Dream11 Wicket-Keeper

Saurashtra’s leading scorer with an astounding 605 runs in his artillery, Sheldon Jackson was the first name on our mind even before we had begun crafting our Dream 11 side for this fixture. Elsewhere, the one player is being brought in from Tamil Nadu as well with us picking up Dinesh Karthik owing to the 244 runs he has scored for his side till now.

SAU Vs TN Dream11 Batsmen

With 491 runs, Harvik Desai is enshrined in our Dream 11 side along with Arpit Vasavada who has piled on 334 runs this season. The two have been the mainstay of Saurashtra’s batting order, two names who have being instrumental to the side torching their way up the ranks in Elite Group A and B.

Elsewhere, Abhinav Mukund scored a double-century for Tamil Nadu the last time around to take his tally upto 448 runs and become the side’s leading run getter. Laxmesha Suryaprakash got a 50 in his side’s previous fixture to see him come in as well from the facet to wrap up our four man batting order.

SAU Vs TN Dream11 All-Rounders

While the 20 wickets he has in his kitty were more than enough to see us snare up Dharmendrasinh Jadeja from Saurashtra, his role as a bat makes him sublime value for today’s encounter. Prerak Mankad will be coming in as well from the unit with the player having a slid amount of 16 wickets in the competition till now.

SAU Vs TN Dream11 Bowling Order

His side’s frontline bowler, Chirag Jani showed what he’s capable of with the bat as well the last time around. He strung together an exceptional knock of 84 runs to make him a must have pick, a player we had to make our first pick owing to his dual toned nature as a performer.

Tamil Nadu’s leading wicket taker with a sensational 22 wickets, Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore makes an advent into our Dream 11 framework as the first selection. M Mohammed comes in as well after he took 9 wickets against Baroda to cut short their soiree with the bat and guide his side to a thumping win.

Captain And Vice-Captain

Being his side’s leading run getter sees us make Sheldon our captain with Desai coming in as the vice-captain.
